Collaborative Clinical Research

The Consortium is the home of several Clinical Coordinating Centers and NIH- supported Specialized Programs of Research Excellence (SPOREs) in cancer. These programs emphasize collaboration between laboratory and clinical scientists in planning and implementing research projects and sharing, managing, and analyzing data.
